SAD NDEEDThe body of Wall
Sayre, eldest son of Dan and Au-
gusta sayre, of Letart, this county,
was found in the Ohio river, near
the West Virginia shore, Tuesday.
August 9th. He was aged Is years,
and was very promising young
man. BE arrived home on Sunday
evening August 18th, from Guyan-
dotte, and crossed over the river
later on and went to church and
took a young lady home from there.
He left the lady,s house about $50
p. m. to go home, and that was the
last seen ofghim alive. His death
so far, is wrapt in mystery. Foul
play is suspected. The Coroner's
jury has not yet rendered verdict
as to how he came to his death.
He had insured his life for $4,000
few days before in Gus Jordan's
Agency, holding his policy in the
Tnter-States Life Association, OF
Staunton, Va. We extend to the
sbereaved family our deepest sym
pathies.

BLAZE AT BRIDGEPORT.

Bridgeport was again visited by a
very destructive fire, about 2H o'clock
on Saturday. afternoon, which wiped out
in brief time twenty thousand dollars
worth of property. The fire originated
ing G. s. P. engine, which kindled a
blaze in the roof of n. Kuhn's ice-house
near the mouth of the creek, just below
the south end of Kirkwood bridge.
When first discovered the blaze was
quite small, but spread rapidly to all
the ice-houses, the two story frame ten>
ements belonging TO Mr.. Kuhn on Mor>
gan street. and the Presbyterian church,
all of which were entirely destroyed.
The tenements we're occupied by four
families. Geo. Kelley, Samuel Watkins.
Wise and Cbas. Barnhill, who is
a freight conductor on the c., L. & w.
road, had been on night run, and was
sound asleep when the fire broke out,
barely escaping with bis life, and after
having one of his arms siDged badly.
The property destroyed consisted of
three ice houses belonging to N. Kuhn,
valued exclusive of contents at $4,000,
insured for $500; the tenement houses

contained about 5000 tons of ice, valued
at $4,000, tWo-tbirds of which will
probably be saved. The Wheeling Fire
Department responded promptly to the
call of Mayor Junkins, rendered valua-
BILE assistance in checking the spread of
flames to adjoining buildings.
